US cybersecurity experts say they have solid evidence that a former employee helped hack Sony Pictures Entertainments computer system and that it was not masterminded by North Korean cyberterrorists.
One leading cybersecurity firm, Norse Corp., said Monday it has narrowed its list of suspects to a group of six people including at least one Sony veteran with the necessary technical background to carry out the attack, according to reports.
The investigation of the Sony hacking by the private companies stands in stark contrast to the finding of the FBI, which said Dec. 19 its probe traced the hacking which ended up foiling the planned wide release of the Hollywood studios The Interview to North Korea.
Kurt Stammberger, senior vice president at Norse, said he used Sonys leaked human-resources documents and cross-referenced the data with communications on hacker chat rooms and its own network of Web sensors to determine it was not North Korea behind the hack.

“Im not all that concerned about the Sony hack. The most interesting thing to me is the takedown of the Nork internet. Did we do that? If so thats freaking awesome and a hell of a warning shot.”
I don’t believe we did it. I believe someone else did to send a different message and this was the perfect opportunity to send it and let the US take the credit.(Or blame)
And I think the message was crystal clear. “We shut down the Iranian nuke program and we can shut down yours. Keep sending Iran material and you will not be happy with what happens. “ With love, Mossad.
